How intense will the MDA debate get when playoffs roll around?

It might be Armageddon on K O. If we lose in the first round I'm sure most fans will want MDA's head on a platter whether we're playing decent defense or not. The only way around the hostilities that will rear its head is if we have a good showing. The further we go the less likely we'll be at each others throats. EC finals would definitely quiet most of us MDA detractors. If by some chance we dont make the playoffs at all I may lead the charge and have a rally outside MSG. :thumbsup:

Just losing to the Heat or Bulls won't mandate MDA's head on a platter.

How we lose to them might.

Still, the true power of the Melo trade is that while we gave up a lot of quality assets and players, they will be most easy to replace with new players, while the rarest of talents (Melo) are a dwindling, rarely available breed.

We're better, but not demonstrably so -- especially with little time for our newly structured team to gel.

We haven't done anything to add to the team since, Jeffries aside (which coincides with our lone big, Turiaf, having arthritic flair ups).

MDA wont be fired if we play hard and give it everything we got maybe even pull an upset.. but if were swept and blown out of every game expect self inflicted resignation

forget the playoffs .. i want him gone NOW
